At the annual dinner of the Dung Men
Democratic Club of Brooklyn, y. Y. on Tnes-
day evening, Gov. Hill made an address,
in which he said "Cleveland's administration
has given the country the benefit Of honesty
and economy. His integrity and sincerity
have never been qres ioned The laws have
been faithfully executed the revenues col
lected with diligence expenses If the govern
ment have been reduced foreign affairs have
been conducted with conservatism and digni-
ty. In fact. Grover Cleveland's admuistra-
ton has fulfilled every promise. Senator
Colquitt also made an address.

Who Will Succeed Him.

Hon. John Sherman presented communi-
said:
Ny Office as President pro tempore of the
Senate will necessarily terminate on the 4th
of March next with my present term as Sena-
tor. 1t will promote the convenience Of the
Senate and the public service TO elect Sena-
tor as President pro telnpOrc whose term ex-
tends beyond that date, so that he may ad-
minister the oath of Office to Senators elect
All, aid in the organ;zltion.
Il, therefore, respectfully resign that posi-
ton, to take effect at one o'clock p. NJ. on Sat
urday next, February 20.
''Iermit me, in doing SO, to express my
heartfelt hlnkS for the uniform courtesy and
of my duties as presiding officer by every
member Of the Senate
There is an impression abroad that neither
Senator IIoar or Senator Ingalls, will be select
ed to succeed Senator Sherman as President
of the Senate. 1t is no: known that either is
a candidate for the honor, and the impression
has for 4 basis only the informal preliminary
talks Of Senators. In addition to their we'll
known standing and long experience both are
expert parliamentarians. 1t is thought that
the senator selected will fill the position not
merely during the recess, bu, during the next
Congress.

"a Whisky Revolt in Atlanta.

3. ATLANTA, August ga secret society
known as the ID. A. B., composed of ultra
Anti. Prohibitionists, met in the Kimball
House this afternoon to discuss the ques.
tion of making another whisky fight in
Atlanta this fall.
Many of the wealthiest and most inau-
entail men in the city we're present.
Letters were received from liquor dealers
in neighboring cities urging the society
to organize and to go 10 work, and prom
ising liberal financial aid. It is reported
that friend of Senator Jos. E. Brown
was present in his behalf and profered
his moral and financial support. The
meeting was an earnest one, and it unan-
imously resolved to prosecute relentless
and aggressive campaign against the
Prohibitionists.
An election will be asked for, and lists
will be sent ont in few days for sigma
lures, and about 100000 was pledged by
those in the meeting, and about half as
much was guaranteed by outside parties.
This money will be used to turn the
negro yote.- Large sums will be placed
in the hands of influential colored men,
and some of the negro preachers will be
used as Anti. Prohibition tools.
In few weeks the Anti Prohibitionists
will have thoroughly equipped daily
paper in Atlanta to battle with the Con.
stitut;on, which is now pronounced Pro.
hibition journal.

Minimum Size Of a Bale.


New ORLEANS, La, August 20
Southern newspapers have recently stated
that the new regulation Of the Cotton
Exchange of this city gave notice that
after September cotton buyers in all
interior towns would deduct from bales
weighing under 400 pounds cent per
pound, and from bales weighing under
$50 pounds cent per pound, rejecting
all bales under 300 pounds. Superintend.
ent Powers, Of the Exchange, this after
noon said that the two first statements
we're unfounded, but the third was cor.
rect. No merchant can be compelled
to take bale weighing less than 300
pounds.

A Sword Presentation.

The Greenville Neaus, of the Both of
August, contains an account of the fol.
lowing pleasant episode:
"There was an incident out of the
usual order of things at the meeting of
the Greenville Guards at their armory
last night. It was The regular weekly
meeting Of the company, and there was
a full response to the roll call. Captain
Norwood, the company's new command
er, was at his post. The unusual Incl
dent was the presentation to retiring
Capt. John M. Patrick of an elegant and
costly sword, as the gift of the company.
"The Rev. Ellison Capers, the compa.
ny chaplain, was present by special inyi-
tation, and delivered the swo.d to Capt.
Patrick. Gen. Capers' remarks accom-.
panying the act. were in the happiest
vein and as pointedly appropriate as his
public speeches always are. He referred
in general terms to the great value of the
military spirit among a people, aud com.
plimented the Guards On the splendid
showing they were able to make now and
on their past record. He then talked in
the highest terms of praise of Capt.
Patrick, handing to him the handsome
gift sword with Inc assurance that it was
a token of the company's high and heart.
felt regard for him, of their appreciation
of his faithful and valuable services as
their commander, and of their earnest
and hearty good wishes for his future
welfare.
"Capt. Patrick responded in few but
very earnestly and forcefully spoken
words, telling OF his sincere gratitude for
the strong testimonial of regard for him,
and returning in many fold the good
wishes and expressions of regard given
him by the company.
"The words of Gen. Capers, as we'll as
the response of Capt. Patrick, were re-
ceived with downright soldierly applause.
Through his military ability and rs
zeal, activity and enthusiasm Capt. Pas-
rick has won the complete affection of
his company, and their action last night
was unanimous and enthusiastic. The
sword is beautiful piece of work, the
weapon being of the regulation United
States army officers pattern, and the
blade, hilt and scabbard being finish ed
in gold, in expensive designs. After the
formal presentation Gen. Capers made
few remarks, complimenting the compa-
ny on the appropriateness OF their action
in making the presentation.

The Earth Trembled.

CHARLESTON, S. c., August 27.-Some
alarm was caused here by the shock at
FIVE o'clock this evening. Very few peo-
pie felt it, but there was certainly q
shake, which was seYerer at Summerville
and Columbia than it was in Charleston.
The alarm was not caused by the violence
of the shake, but by the strange coinci-
dence that is occurred precisely on the
same day and on the same hour that the
preliminary shake which preceded the
disastrous earthquake of August 81 last.
It is not true that Charleston will remain
up and pray on the 91st Of August. The
idea was suggested by crazy preacher,
but it did not take. It is true, however,
that the negroes are badly frightened,
and are holding prayermeetings every
night.
AUGUSTA, Ga, August 27.-A slight
earthquake shock was felt here at 4:30
this morning, arousing many people FROM
their slumbers, but doing no damage. A
strange thing about this shock is the fact
that last year on the very day and hour
slight shock was felt here, which was
followed by heavy ones on the 31st of
August. A great many persons are su.
uerstitious about this and seem confident
that we will have repetition of last
years shocks, while others do not seem
to notice it. a great many frightened
persons have already expressed their de-
termination to remain out doors all night
on the night Of Wednesday, the S1st,
which is the anniversary of the big
shake. There is no doubt of the fact
that the streets will be crowded on that
night.
COLUMBIA, S. G., August 27.-A little
after 12 o'clock this morning an earth
quake shock occurred here accompanied
by the usual roar and lasting some
seconds. At four minutes of S o'clock
second and heavier shock was felt. The
motion was undulating.
